  • Well, seems like you have no idea how to focus :(

  • Can you please explain why you wouldn't recommend using the AF face detection while shooting video just because the camera hunted for auto focus during your demonstration. Didn't the camera do exactly what you asked it, and it couldn't focus because no faces were detected. would it be possible for you to redo this test with a few "faces" in the scene so that the AF face detection could really be tested. I agree that nothing beats MF even for Video but I want to quiet the Nikon D7000 crowd.

  • you suck

  • MANUAL.....the whole point of using a DSLR for video...if i want AUTO i would buy a camcorder

  • lol. that was really useless... maybe change title of video?

  • I think you should read the owner's manual first; it seems to me that you had no idea how to use the AF on live view.

  • This does not really tell a useful way to use AF in video mode. It;s more like why you should not use it. It would be better to make a tutorial on how to keep your subject in focus while making a video.

  • thanks for the interesting information much appreciated.

  • Omg this is very very stupid :(

  • This guy, has no idea what he is doing.

  • @2Cool4Games quick mode rules. but there's a problem when you have to focus back and forth in the same scene.

  • @JayShawnFilms

    me too

    And I have to use it soon for a job..shooting videos....

    .but it seems so complicated...I am looking for someone to tell me how to set EVERYTHING in AUTOMATIC...I mean it! dont have time to learn now.

    Help!!!
